Mc (pronounced Muh or Mak, never mick) is Gaelic for "Son of" like the prefix Fitz (Fitzwilliam e.g.) in old French. Maguinness or McGuinness would be pronounced the same and mean originally MacAngus: Son of, or from the family of Angus

Mc is associated with Irish names. Mac is associated with Scottish names. Both mean the same - son of.
